Softening into
Your Next
Becoming
A 6-week live journey for women ready to move through this transition with presence, self-love, gentleness, community and support.
You are not falling apart. Your body is finding a new rhythm.
You might feel more tired than before, more emotionally sensitive, less able to tolerate the pace and pressure you were carrying before.
Sleep changes, and energy becomes unpredictable. Some days feel fine, while others feel like moving through water.
And it is not only physical. There is a quieter shift underneath, in your sense of who you are, what you want, what you're willing to carry, what no longer feels like yours.
Nothing is wrong with you. Your body is changing its rhythm. And it is asking — gently, and sometimes less gently — for a different kind of support and rhythm.Built on the wisdom of the 5 elements, this perimenopause immersion is where biology, Chinese medicine, somatic practices and the deeper meaning of this transition come together as one integrated journey. So it is not a course you consume alone. Instead, it is a journey you move through with guidance, with practices and with a community of women doing this alongside you.
What if your symptoms are not the problem,
but the message?
Perimenopause is not a malfunction. It is a transition that touches everything: your hormones, nervous system, identity, relationships, desires, energy, and sense of meaning.
Chinese medicine offers a deeper map of transformation — one that honours the body, the emotions, the spirit and the seasons of a woman's life.
And beneath it, your body already knows. You can feel it, even if part of you is still resisting the changes it is asking for.What becomes possible inside this immersion
- You begin to recognise what your body is communicating, instead of fearing it
- Slowly, the fear, anger, grief and exhaustion become messages you can understand
- You stop seeing yourself as a woman in decline
- Your clarity, values, energy and capacity for joy return
- In time, you come out refined, clearer and softer
Softening into Your Next Becoming
Each week follows one of the 5 elements — a map through which the body, emotions and spirit can be understood and gently guided toward wholeness.
Returning to Yourself
We begin by slowing down. The exhaustion that sleep does not fix. The nervous system that cannot fully settle. Then, gently, we rebuild safety in the body.
Moving What Is Stuck
Once the body feels safer, energy can begin to move again. We work with the exhaustion of holding everything together. Boundaries. Clarity.
Rekindling Aliveness
When safety and movement return, so can joy. We explore connection, self-expression and the parts of you that have gone quiet. Feeling alive again.
Nourishing the Centre
Perimenopause asks for a different relationship with nourishment. Food. Rhythm. Rest. Receiving support. Learning to stop abandoning yourself.
Releasing
Now we begin letting go. Old identities, old coping strategies, old expectations of who you thought you had to be. Grief. Breath. Space. Refinement. You are becoming more true.
Your Next Season
We bring the five elements together into your personal map moving forward. A closing ceremony. A reflection on what is ending and what is ready to begin.

There is another way to move through this season.
More gently. More truthfully. And not alone.
This immersion is for you if…
- You are in perimenopause, or beginning to wonder if you might be, and something inside you knows that pushing through is no longer working.
- Understanding what is happening in your body, with more clarity and less fear, matters to you.
- You are longing for a way to move through this transition that feels softer, steadier and more connected.
- Both understanding and experiencing this deeper wisdom call to you.
- Practical support and space to process what this transition is asking of you.
- You no longer want to do it alone.
I am Julie,
and I created this
immersion for you.
I am an integrative women's health practitioner with a PhD in molecular biology and oncology, alongside training in Chinese medicine, nutrition, somatic practice and qigong.
For years, I studied the body through science and research. But since 2013, I realised information alone was not enough. I needed a wider understanding of what life and its transitions were asking — physically, emotionally and personally.
Over time, I found myself drawn toward approaches that helped women feel more connected to their bodies rather than at war with them.
I created this immersion to bring those pieces together. If you prefer to begin gently, explore my free resources or 1:1 treatments in the clinic.
Women who've
walked this path.
I felt very welcome and very well taken care of. I came to Julie with a 5-year amenorrhea and I'm now back to a healthier cycle. Thank you!
I've been attending Julie's group acupuncture sessions for months and loved them — her care is exceptional, and so is the atmosphere she creates. Practising Qigong on the beach with her was a wonderful experience too. I recommend her 100%.
